I have managed to replicate the problem on Ubuntu 11.04 which uses
openssl (0.9.8o-5ubuntu1) with OpenMP enabled.
http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/openssl
Even removing all free calls from program doesn't prevent the crash
from happening.
1. What about limiting the patch to OpenSSL 1.0.0 series (which
hopefully works!)?
2. What about building 0.9.8r and testing against that?
Will test out option 2 tomorrow morning.
